Freddie is exempt, he was the epitome of flamboyant stylishness at all times. Just type "Freddie" into google and see who shows up first.
Oh, I think the prize must be shared among several Swedish bands from the 1970's

Always thought a good spoof Dead cover band would be called Bobby’s Shorts.
I think they were mentioned twice before your post. But who’s counting, right?
Growing up in the 80’s had a lot too choose from , with relic jeans , to big hair etc etc

The wardrobe person, or Daniel Craig, is letting their lower-middle-class roots show. A well dressed gentleman would know that the coat should NEVER pull and pucker at the button. He needs to get a suit that fits and doesn't make him look like he's pulled his bar mitzvah suit out of the plastic bag in the closet, 20 years later.
Story behind that cover…
“As the story goes, the inmates were running the proverbial asylum as everyone gathered at a London studio. Nobody was prepared, the label wanted one thing, management wanted another, and nobody had bothered telling the band what they were supposed to wear. In the resulting photo Ozzy Osbourne is wearing a long kimono, hiding the fact that he has nothing on below. He’s “commando” because he’s lent Bill Ward his checkered underpants. Ward is wearing Ozzy’s underwear because he hadn’t bothered to show up wearing pants. To look a little more presentable Ward has borrowed the red tights his wife Mysti was wearing at the shoot, with the checkered underwear clearly visible on the back cover photo. So in the end you have a stylish, very mid’70s-looking bassist, a businesslike guitarist sitting with a stern expression, a kimono-clad singer with nothing on underneath, and a drummer wearing his wife’s tights over the singer’s underpants. And a leather jacket, because after all you had to complete the ensemble somehow.” From - Blood and Thunder: Black Sabbath’s ‘Sabotage’ at 40, PopMatters
LOL. The drummer is in motocross gear.Growing up in the 80’s had a lot too choose from , with relic jeans , to big hair etc etc
